After dominating the African Rally Championships (ARC) Equator Rally over the weekend in Naivasha, Carl 'Flash' Tundo now shifts his focus to the Safari Rally in June at the same venue. On his very first outing with the Minti Motorsports VW Polo R5, the five-time Safari Rally winner led the Kenyan round of the continental series from start to finish. Having won six out of 11 stages, Tundo was full of praise for his rally car, which he will be using for the WRC Safari Rally in June. South Africa’s Botterill extended his lead on the ARC log with 50 points but admitted that his Toyota R5 car took quite a beating. Tundo savoured back-to-back fastest times on Malewa and Loldia to extend his lead to 10:10.3 minutes after the 53.72km three-stage loop.
